Abstract
Until very recent times, the topic of a "100% renewable energy system” was a type of intellectual and mostly academic discussion. But some revolutionary movements in the renewable energy markets, e.g., photovoltaic (PV) cells and wind technologies, have raised hopes and converted "100% renewables” to an attainable scenario in policy and planning analyses with several successful deployment stories already around the world. Here, we investigate some historical background of this new field from the academic literature and the ongoing research directions. We also elaborate on the associated energy system planning challenges in this context.
